Vintage Ceramic Santa Ornament – Chubby Santa from 1967 Duncan Mold

This vintage ceramic Santa ornament was created from an original 1967 Duncan mold, originally designed as a chubby Santa salt and pepper shaker set and thoughtfully adapted into a hanging ornament.

With his rounded shape and classic mid-century charm, this Santa feels like something pulled straight from a childhood Christmas, warm, familiar, and full of character. Each piece is hand-poured, cleaned, and kiln-fired, preserving the soft details and nostalgic proportions that made this mold so beloved.

By reimagining this vintage mold as an ornament, it becomes something meant to be unwrapped and displayed year after year, blending old-school charm with modern heirloom craftsmanship.

Finished with a hanger and ready to display, this piece pairs beautifully with any existing decor, adding unique vintage timeless charm.
